When you go to pick up your girls at Camp, you will first be entertained with a song or skit from each of the camp units for the week… or in our case - for the month! Since Sugar was the only CIT (Counselor in Training) this summer, she did not put on a skit. But she was congratulated and invited back to finish the summer as a counselor. Sugar is pictured here with her Unit Leader for the week - Skip, from Australia.
Here are photos from the other units’ program offerings:

On my honor I will try…

On the first day of horse camp…

Bazooka zooka Bubble Gum!…

A coochi-cha, a choochi-cha, a choochi-cha-cha…
After the program, I had to wait a bit for the counselors to cleanup and have their end-of-week staff meeting. So I snapped a few nature shots around the lodge:

Finally, you can sleep easy tonight: The Postcard Rumor has been proven false. The rumor was that the last Timbercrest postcard had been sold. You know the one. We’ve had them in the Trading Post since… well… since I was a camper… and well… that’s a long time. But have no fear. More were found in Loki’s office… so you can still get one, if you need one… or several…
I wonder how many they ordered originally?

What a frightening rumor! I managed to buy an even older postcard of camp this summer. It depicts the lake in summer from an even higher perspective than the autumn one does. The photo must’ve been taken soon after camp was made– the dam is very visible, and it looks like the buildings are quite new. I plan on scanning it and saving it, so the picture will survive, even if the ‘dead tree’ version does not.

Actually, now that the summer is over I do believe we have sold every last one. Trading post was pretty depleted at the close of camp.
